| Title | Access to the Right of Education for Refugee Children in Indonesia: A Government Denial, or Disobedience? |
| Summary | For humanitarian purposes, Indonesia, as a non-signatory party to the Convention Relating to Refugee Status, has welcomed refugees and asylum seekers to stay temporarily in its land. However, due to the large number of arriving refugees, Indonesia does not fulfil its responsibility under international human rights instruments for the most vulnerable group among them, refugee children. As the state party to the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) 1966 and Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) 1989, Indonesia shall ensure the enjoyment of refugee children's rights, specifically the right to free compulsory education. Nevertheless, Indonesia is neglecting to respect, protect and fulfil this right by the discriminatory policy towards refugee children. The purpose of this research is to analyze the unintended negligence of Indonesia towards its responsibility to fulfil the right to free primary education for refugee children in Indonesia and whether the current nature of the education scheme for the refugee is discriminatory or not. |
